Kai Chan updated SOLR-11746:
----------------------------
    Attachment: SOLR-11746.patch

I have added a patch to treat foo:* the same way as foo:[* TO *] for point 
fields. I hope it is useful as a starting point.

> numeric fields need better error handling for prefix/wildcard syntax -- 
> consider uniform support for "foo:* == foo:[* TO *]"

> On the solr-user mailing list, Torsten Krah pointed out that with Trie 
> numeric fields, query syntax such as {{foo_d:\*}} has been functionality 
> equivilent to {{foo_d:\[\* TO \*]}} and asked why this was not also supported 
> for Point based numeric fields.
> The fact that this type of syntax works (for {{indexed="true"}} Trie fields) 
> appears to have been an (untested, undocumented) fluke of Trie fields given 
> that they use indexed terms for the (encoded) numeric terms and inherit the 
> default implementation of {{FieldType.getPrefixQuery}} which produces a 
> prefix query against the {{""}} (empty string) term.  
> (Note that this syntax has aparently _*never*_ worked for Trie fields with 
> {{indexed="false" docValues="true"}} )
> In general, we should assess the behavior users attempt a prefix/wildcard 
> syntax query against numeric fields, as currently the behavior is largely 
> non-sensical:  prefix/wildcard syntax frequently match no docs w/o any sort 
> of error, and the aformentioned {{numeric_field:*}} behaves inconsistently 
> between points/trie fields and between indexed/docValued trie fields.
